 NEW YORK. May 3.
 The stock market to-day except for three or four stocks was fully dull and featureless yester day, although the operations in the few active stocks gave more character to the trading. There was no news of importance and the operations were little more than the manipuations by the cllques and the usual purchases and sales by the room traders. Fluctuations in the general list unusually small. Western Union the principal
 point of attack in the forenoon, but gave place to Reading and New England Many conflicting
 stories in regard to the first named stock continue to be circulated. The efforts to depress New Eng land met with but small success to day and it's
 strength in the forenoon was, considering the inu ence brought to bear against it, somewhat remark able. Fort Worth and Denver was the most con- spcuous strong stock of the day, but it had ef feet upon the general list Money was again bid up in the afternoon and in conjunction with the ad- in sterling rates of exchange had little effect upon the market. The opening this morning was generally firm, most stocks showing advances of from 1S to 13 per cent. The market soon weak ened, however, and fractional declines estab- lfshed in the general list. while New England was specially weak for the first few minutes. A gen
 eral rally occurred before noon, although Western Union continued weak through most of that time. | The fluctuations in the general list were confined
 within range of B per cent. and after 12 o'clock the market became extremely dull. Fort Worth ! and Denver strong and the general list re- sponded feebly, but later the improvement en-
 tirely lost, the heavy tone prevailing until the close. which dull and fsatureless.

The installment theory is by no means

The installnent theory is by no means a new one. Honestly conducted by reliable person or firm it is blessing to persons of limited incomes. Of course unprincipled persons can abuse it, and the same is true of any good measure In fact, it's always best to deal with firms of established good reputa- tion when such firm advertises that their goods are honestly made and that they are selling at low prices, and rely on their good name to assist them. B. A. Atkinson 6 Co. have all these requisites, and you cannot make mistake if you purchase from them.

THE BUNCO SrEERERs.

Will Their Hail be Reduced - The Lawyers Plead for the Accused- Decision To-Day.
 Harrison and Burton, the bunco steerers, were brought into the criminal side of the | Court of Common Pleas yesterday morning \ by Sheriff Gates on writ of habeas corpus | served on Monday. The prisoners were hand | cuffed together. Their attorney, Lawyer | Pigott, thought they should be out on bonds,
 but they could not raise the amount fixed in i the City court by Judge Pickett. He thought \ the bonds were excessive. Detective Reilly | and John J. Clerkin testified, the latter as to | how he was taken for Harris by Darius Driver | in the City court After all the testimony | was in that the defense wanted to introduce 1 Attorney Pigott argued the injustice of keep ing the men locked up when the cases were
 only simple, conspiracy and misdemeanor ! cases, and that nothing had been proven against them. Their bonds should be re- ! duced so that they could be at liberty until adjudged by jury.
 Prosecuting Attorney Gum of the new | court argued that if the bonds were reduced the prisoners would not appear for trial. If he thought they could be trusted he would l be the last to advocate heavy bail. He said the City court seldom made mistakes. Each particle of evidence was weighed as it ought | to be.
 w. B. Stoddard said that although the men were from out of town they should be ! treated with fairness: he thought they should ] be released so that they could prepare their cases and obtain their evidence for trial; he I thought the bonds were exorbitant; they amount to nearly 5000. MT. Stoddard said that bond of $200 in each instance is all that the State should ask; you get then $1, ,6O0 under these four cases, and with the $2, 300 you would have over $4,000. The court was not asked to reduce the bond in the false pretense case against Burton.

A Startling Fact.

It Is not commonly known that large proportion of the rheumatism and neuralgia extant is traceable directly to the diseased condition or imperfect action of the kidneys and liver; therefore remedy which cures the resulting disease must have found and smitten the first cause. Many persons using Athlophoros for rheumatism and neuralgia have been surprised to find that chronic dis orders of the liver and kidneys have also been greatly relieved and they have written for an explanation. The fact is, that the remedy acts directly on these organs, cleans ing them from all irritating substances and regulating their action. Taken in connection with Athlophoros Pills this is, without ex- caption, the most valuable kidney and liver remedy in the world, and will cure large proportion of those who have these diseases.
 It is owing to Athlophoros that am alive. I have suffered with infammatory rheuma- tism for years, most of the time being per fectly helpless. But one bottle of Athlo- phoros has cured me. There IS nothing like it for the speedy relief and permanent cure of rheumatism, so recommend it to all, knowing it will accomplish what it claims to. MRS. E. VICKERs,
